Xanthe sat down on one of the tables in the front of the library. She brushed loose strands of her now blonde hair behind her ears and propped her chin up on her open palm. She sat silently while glancing at the people occupying the enormous library. Although it looked insanely crowded today it was filled with people she didn’t know. Which kind of seemed odd and hard to understand seeing as after seven years at Hogwarts she thought she knew a lot of the students. As she sighed and looked up from her books she felt her chair jolt a little behind her and looked up to see what had make it jerk.

Mette didn't like libraries, there was too much books and knowledge. It's not that he didn't like books or knowledge, it was just a pain to think that no matter how much you read and learn, there is still so much more to do. He came to find a book on Werewolfs because he had recently been intrigued to study them by another student in Hogwarts. Manuvering his large body through the rows of tables trying to get to the books Mette was doing quite well, but then he walked by a girl sitting at a table who made him lose his concentration for a moment, she stood out among the rest, he clummsily triped over the leg of her chair, not falling over, but becoming a bit unbalenced. He turned away from the girl a bit embaressed and not wanting to cause any trouble. "My mistake, I am sorry for my rudeness" Mette spoke in a respectful manner.

Xanthe found herself looking up into the eyes of a taller guy whom she had never met. "It's okay don't worry about it... I'm clumsy too I do it all the time. I mean... not that I'm saying you're clumsy just--" Xanthe bit her lip and sighed. She had always had a tendency to ramble on and on about nonsense. "Sorry I'll just shut up. By the way I'm Xanthe." She said with a smile and waited for him to tell her his name.

He watched her as she spoke, she seemed a nit over the edge and he found it quite funny. He smiled at her, "I actually am pretty clumsy, this body has a lot of disadvantages." He was at a kinda lost for words because of her little rant. He was still laughing inside at how she had introduced herself. It was all very entertaining. "I am Mette Prium Opalescent. You may refer to me however you please, I like Opal though if it is not a bother. Mind if i take a seat?" He stood waiting for her approval.

"Oh okay... and I have a different body type but I'm still clumsy so it isn't just you." Xanthe said with a smile. She felt a little odd because of her rambling and hoped he hadn't thought she was too weird. "It's not a bother at all... that's a nice name Opal. It's really unusual but then who am I to talk my name is Xanthe..." She said and frowned a little before motioning to the seat next to her. "Of course not go ahead I could use some company and actually I love meeting new people." Xanthe replied and tapped her fingers against the table. "So what did you come in here for?" Xanthe asked.

Mette took a seat carefully hoping not to suddenly fall backwards or do anything that would embaress himself more. He wondered why he was taking a seat, and why he was being so open ever since he got to Hogwarts. It was all too wierd but at the same time he didn't mind trying something new. Now sitting next to her he noticed all the make up she wore. It was just another thing that interested him, make up seemed like a art to him, not just a means of hiding blemishes. "Why thank you. I like my name as well, I was lucky enough to end up with a good one. Your name is interesting as well. What background would you be to have such a name? Oh...I came here too..." He had completely forgotten, it was hard enough for him to meet new people that he had to put his full attention on it. It seemed in the process of trying to understand the girl before him, he had forgotten his purpose for being at all. Not that it mattered, the fates had given him a new purpose, or so it seemed.

Xanthe noticed his gaze looked almost transfixed by her face and wondered why. Maybe it was her eccentric make up that took at least half an hour each morning or maybe she had something on her face. "Is there something on me that I should know about?" She asked and raised an eyebrow, curiously. Maybe he had been looking at something behind her and she had just made yet another embarrassing mistake of being overly outgoing. "Well my name is Greek it actually means golden, and can be spelled with and 'X' or a 'Z' but I'm English. What about yourself... I mean you said you were lucky but is Opal part of a family tradition or does it possibly have something to do with your heritage?" Xanthe asked suddenly really interested in etymology. Xanthe laughed a little as he paused when thinking about what he had come here for and shrugged. "It's quite alright if you don't remember not a big deal." She said with a reassuring smile.

He smirked at her energy, it was all so refreshing. It made it easier to talk to her and kept him interested in what she had to tell. "Oh sorry...There is nothing on your face, just me spacing out a bit thinking of random things." He listened closely as she talked of the heritage of her name, he thought she must have pretty cool parents to have them come up with such a symbolic name for her. "Well my grandfather was a jewler and so was my father until the age of 16. My grandfather specialized in jewlery containing Opal or Opalescent colors." He looked at her wearily thinking of showing her his jewlery but she seemed so kind. Mette reached into his shirt and revealed a neckless made of silver with Opal stones skillfully crafted throughout. "My father grew to hate my grandfather's works and I got to inherit all of his creations when he died...I hope to live on the legacy someday." he stopped, "I'm sorry we have only just met and I'm telling you of my dreams my past and my future. I am sorry if I've been too forward."

"Oh that's good you had me worried for a second it's unreal how much time I spend in the mornings getting ready." Xanthe said and bit her lip. It was kind of unreal how she had so many friends who had never seen her without makeup actually almost every friend she had applied to that rule. Talking about her heritage and parents made her feel a little sentimental. She really did love her parents because they had always been so open and really treated her like a friend more than a responsibility. "That's really amazing I'd love to do something with jewelry when I'm older." Xanthe said and smiled brightly as he told her about his family. As he pulled out the necklace she almost her mouth almost dropped open in astonishment. The colors and detail of the piece were so beautiful she could only imagine how much care it had taken to create something like that. Sure Xanthe was into fashion, artwork, modeling, hair and other things like that but this was different. "That's beautiful you're really lucky to have a grandfather who was so talented." She said and frowned as he stopped and seemed to think he had told her too much. "No no really it was lovely to hear all that. Honestly." She said and lent over to give him a reassuring hug.

Mette froze with his arms at his sides as she hugged him. He looked at her a bit uncomfortable as she did but at the same time he couldn't stop the smile that came to his face. He wasn't used to being hugged, like never and the fact that someone he had just met so openly did was pretty fun. He blushed embaressed by the hug and looked up into the air, hoping she would not see. "uh...welll...you do really good work...in the morning...you know...uh getting ready." He was having problems speaking now and hoped to regain his bearings as to not scare her off.

Xanthe had felt him tense up when she threw her arms around him and felt a little bad. She giggled a little and pulled back decided next time maybe a reassuring hand squeeze would be more appropriate. Well given that there would be a next time... she was hoping that she hadn't been a little to touchy for his liking and he'd still want to hang out. As he began to sort of mumble something she smiled again warmly and paid no attention to it. "Thanks... I love to hear that actually. It means I'm not doing all this work for nothing." Xanthe said and laughed. "So what were we talking about? I can't seem to remember for the life of me... merlin that means I'm getting old." She said and bit her lip.

He was sitting there trying to think of somethin to ask his brain not working because of the embaressment. Then he came up with a question, it was just what he needed to be back in the conversation. "You don't look to be very old, do you mind if i ask your year and age?" he didn't want to stop talking after getting it back so soon, "Of course I am obliged to tell you my own first, I am a 6th year slytherin, age 17." He smiled happy that he was back to himself, it would've proved tragic if he froze up for the rest of the conversation.

Xanthe was happy when he proved to be fine by starting to talk again. Well actually it was a question first then followed by him talking a little. She was actually really interested in learning about Opal. It seemed like he had lived a really amazing life and with all of the stuff about jewelry she actually learned a lot of new things today. She laughed a little when he said she wasn't old and shrugged. "Okay you caught me I'm not old but still... forgetting things like that makes me think of my grandmother." Xanthe said and paused for a moment. She thought she had seen someone she knew across the room but then it turned out to be just another student. "I'm a 7th year so kind of old... but 17 as well. So we're the same age and sometimes 6th and 7th years have classes together." She continued.

Mette was having fun with this, well the way she answered questions in genral. It was all so unreal like...he couldn't quite describe it. But she jsut seemed so animated and this pleased him. Like when she said 'Oh you caught me' it wasn't as though she was trying hard to cover it up or that he was trying hard to find it. But it was fun that she made it feel that way. "Really, well if we do have a class you have to promise me a seat next to you in at least one of them. I'm sure you would be a lifesaver in a boring class." He paused feeling a bit straight-forward again, asking to sit with this random girl. But it all seemed so comfortable to ask her, she had that kinda aura. He thought to switch it up though, just to be safe. "If you don't mind me asking what is one of the craziest thing you've ever done?"

Xanthe was really happy at Mette's mention of sitting together in class because that meant she hadn't totally put him off my her unexpected hug. "Of course I'll save you a seat, what are you taking this year?" She asked as she thought on what he had said about her being fun in a boring class. "Well I guess I'd be... I don't really try very hard I was just born fabulous." She grinned and laughed. After all Xanthe had only been joking about the fabulous part but she did like her self a lot. When he asked about the craziest thing she had ever done she paused even longer than she had for the comment about boring classes. It wasn't that she was offended or weirded out by what he had said she just wasn't really sure what to say. There were a lot of 'crazy' things Xanthe had done but she had only tried them because they looked like fun. "Hmm.... that's a really hard question." She said and tapped her bright red nails along the table top. "When I was younger I turned my eyebrows green on purpose and by accident I turned my nose into an almost-pig snout... what other crazy things have I done hmm." Xanthe said trying to think of something really good. "I don't know I guess I'm just going to have to promise that I'll find you when I remember something really amazing. Anyway enough about me what about your crazy past? I know you have a secret you seem like the rebel type." Xanthe joked again with another adorable grin.
